I'm not entirely sure what you mean by draining its capacity. ChainBB is built on the STEEM blockchain. Any website like steemit, ChainBB, busy.org, etc., is just a GUI that formats posts on the STEEM blockchain in a user-friendly and visually appealing manner. So yes, money/STEEM/SP/SBD is indeed involved. When you upvote a post on ChainBB, you are broadcasting an upvote of the post to the STEEM blockchain. This upvote can then be seen on steemit, ChainBB, steemd, etc.

Thanks for your quick response :-)
I don't seem to find te same posts on ChainBB as I can find here, why is that?
Any post on the STEEM blockchain can be viewed on ChainBB. @jesta just has the forums set up so not every post is displayed on the front page(s). To jump from steemit to ChainBB and vice versa, use this bookmarklet made by @lukestokes:
https://beta.chainbb.com/chainbb/@lukestokes/steemit-chainbb-bookmarklet-for-chainbb
Whenever you are viewing any post on steemit or ChainBB, simply click on that in the bookmarks bar and you will have the same post on the other website.
well this was certainly an informative thread to read --- never knew there were more sites than Steemit 'built' on Steem's blockchain; my mind is literally blown. Thank you.
There more too: busy.org, esteem.ws and a few others I can't remember off the top of my head.
busy.org is the same site as Steemit?
